Finally, our day to meet Dr. Scott Faber had arrived. On Monday, we had the pleasure of meeting with Dr. Faber, a DAN (Defeat Autism Now) doctor. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I had heard that Dr. Faber really 'loved himself'. I went in with an open mind and found that Dr. Faber really believes in what he is doing, and has a love for his research and patients. I was hoping to find one thing that would help me with Ryan, and it so happens that Dr. Faber opened my eyes. He assured me that Ryan was extremely high funcitioning and kept saying how 'great' he was. He also offered his diagnosis of mild PDD, the lowest diagnosis under the Autism umbrella. Ryan had blood-lots of blood, drawn and I should know the results soon. Dr. Faber is testing him for anything and everything. We will head back to his office in just a few months and hopefully begin Ryan's transformation. I still don't think Ryan can be 'healed' but I do think that I can help lift the 'fog' from around him.
If anyone is questioning what help they should seek, the smartest direction to go would be to make an appointment with Dr. Faber. Even if he can answer one question, or help with something small, it will be worth your time and effort.
